An electric motor, a power system, a control method, and an electric vehicle. The electric motor comprises a first N-phase winding set and a second N-phase winding set, wherein the first N-phase winding set and the second N-phase winding set are both used for being connected to a traction battery by means of a conversion module. When the traction battery starts to be heated, the first N-phase winding set and the second N-phase winding set are powered on. The direction of a magnetic field generated by the first winding set and the direction of a magnetic field generated by the second winding set have a phase difference, such that the magnetic fields counteract each other; and a magnetic field intensity in a stator winding of each phase is reduced, and an air-gap magnetic flux is also reduced, thereby alleviating the problems of electric motor heating and electric motor NVH.

A short-circuit fault-tolerant control method based on deadbeat current tracking for a five-phase permanent magnet motor with a sinusoidal back-electromotive force or a trapezoidal back-electromotive force (EMF) is provided. By fully utilizing a third harmonic space of a five-phase permanent magnet motor in a fault state, the method proposes a fault-tolerant control strategy for a five-phase permanent magnet motor with a sinusoidal back-EMF or a trapezoidal back-EMF in case of a single-phase short-circuit fault. The method enables the five-phase permanent magnet motor to make full use of the third harmonic space during fault-tolerant operation, thereby improving the torque output of the motor in a fault state and improving the fault-tolerant operation efficiency of the motor. The method achieves desirable fault-tolerant performance and dynamic response of the motor, and expands the speed range of the motor during fault-tolerant operation.

A method for controlling a multiphase separately excited synchronous generator in a wind turbine is provided. The generator has a stator and an armature having an excitation input, connected to an excitation controller, for inputting an excitation current or an excitation voltage. The stator has a stator output, connected to a rectifier, for delivering stator currents. The rectifier is controllable to control the stator currents by detecting a speed of the armature or rotor, determining a setpoint power to be delivered by the generator or the turbine based on the speed, determining an excitation current or voltage based on the detected speed and determined setpoint power, inputting the excitation current or voltage by excitation controller at the excitation input, determining the stator currents as setpoint stator currents based on the speed and the setpoint power, and controlling the rectifier to set the stator currents to the setpoint stator currents.

An electric power steering apparatus having independent turning mechanisms for respective four wheels of a vehicle, has a problem in that, when a turning motor fails, a turning mechanism for a corresponding wheel stops functioning, resulting in reduction in the maneuverability and the stability of the vehicle. Turning motors of turning mechanisms independently disposed for respective four wheels of a vehicle, each have a redundant configuration. Specifically, each turning motor is configured as three-phase duplexing motors having two three-phase windings and two inverters for separately driving the three-phase windings.

A motor can be controlled in a user-friendly manner so that a phase current based on an input command torque command value is caused to flow to at least one among U-phase, V-phase, and W-phase windings of the motor, so that a predetermined in-phase current is superimposed on the phase current and caused to flow to at least one among the windings. The motor is controlled such that energization to one winding corresponding to a predetermined energization stop phase is stopped, for example, so that energization to the U-phase winding is stopped, and so that a V-phase current, a W-phase current and an in-phase current are caused to flow to each winding corresponding to a phase other than the energization stop phase, for example, so that the V-phase current, the W-phase current and the in-phase current are caused to flow to the V-phase winding and the W-phase winding.
